While our family was binge-watching the 1990’s sitcom “3rd Rock from the Sun” I was inspired by Ben Vaughn’s (also from Southern New Jersey) rockabilly/retro-rock theme song. So I decided to step back in time (Keepsakes was mostly about time travel)to the 60’s and write a surf rock guitar tune (aka The Ventures - I played the LP "Golden Greats" so much I wore it out). I wanted to add a little more texture and I thought it would be fun to sing Doo Wop so I added 4-part vocals.

ЗИМА

Мокрая бабочка летала по дому.
Шевелила руками усталые мысли.
Глаза опустелые о зеркала спотыкались
и брызгали острыми скользкими искрами.
Мокрое дерево стучало в окно,
бабочку дохлую выманивая из меня.
Прирастая к стеклу отражения,
двигалось длинное белое облако.

Молоко заливает поля.
Всё. Всё тонет в молоке.

Наступила зима.

WINTER (pidgin-version)

A wet butterfly flew around the house and wiggled by hands tired thoughts.
The emptied eyes stumbled of the mirrors and splashed with sharp, slippery sparks.

A wet tree knocked in the window, luring out of me the dead butterfly.
A long white cloud moved, growing to a glass reflection.

Milk floods the fields.
Everything. Everything is drowning in milk.

Winter came.

This was primarily an ambient track, but then a harmonic and rhythmic content showed up in my mind, and a couple of lines of lyrics immediately followed, so I guess it turned to be some kind of experimental ethnic desert blues... I don't know whether I'm right or wrong, I'm not so good at labelling music.
It's all about Africa, quite obviously. What if the same panic that many people in Western countries are experiencing now because of COVID-19 was a permanent condition? What if beside epidemics we had to face wars, famines, poverty, rapes, violence and structural corruption every single day of our life? I had these and other questions in my mind while recording this tune...
